BBC relegating G8 issues
concernedz25 | 06.07.2005 12:51
As other posters have noted the bbc has now relegated the g8 to the lastitem but one on its news programmes as the Olympic beanfeast is announced , many people who have wanted to find out current thinking about the G8, what the politicans are thinking and their manoureveing, how the NGOo’s are responding etd, and of course the activities of the protesters, will be very disapointed. Further, they keep showing footage of the violent scenes this morning when most protest is now non violent and good natured.

This announcement could of happened at anytime in the last month, but I suggest, they have waited until now to break it.
If it wasn't this story it would of been another.
eg. phony UK/French row
It just shows how the media is totally under their control.

That said looking at our history of big building project management (Millenium Dome, Millenium Bridge) chances are that we will go over budget and trigger a recession. Will 2012 be the first ever olymipics to be cancelled due to bad planning and the building work not finished? Perhaps if there is a recession then some of the people in east London will be able to afford housing and all of the people "Buying to let" who currently bouy the market away from first time buyers will loose some cash and pull out of the game.

p.s.
Balls to the G8 and all they stand for, it's not as if they are going to make any decisions that will do anything but line their pockets more. International aid will all go to multinational companies "investing in the area" and the markest are going to be forced open for us to exploit further. As for climate change you can forget any kind of action, Mr Bush has only just admitted that it may be a problem in the future.

Not getting in-depth TV coverage of every aspect of what we've been up to is not evidence of a giant media conspiracy.. just a busy world!

We Scots have no control over the media, so what do you expect.
We had no say either about G8 being held in Scotland
